(child).
I want to have precondition for saving state of parent workitem.
The precondition is "Parent workitem will be saved at "development completed" state only if all of its changerequests's(child) workitems state is "development completed"."

Hi Dnyanesh, It does work...you're probably missing the definitions in the plugin.xml (in this case, you definitely need the highlighted ones). You'll have to hand-code this in to the plugin.xml - page 59 of the extensions lab doc (v3.0.1) explains.

(btw. see also Nick's comment in here https://jazz.net/forum/questions/70215/fetching-parent-workitem-using-plain-java-api?redirect=%2Fforum%2Fquestions%2F70215%2Ffetching-parent-workitem-using-plain-java-api for a better way to get the work item referenced)

Hi,

I would suggest with reading this post http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/07/31/rtc-update-parent-duration-estimation-and-effort-participant/ and then work through the rest of the posts for open questions.

You can also search the forum for API, I think I remember having seen numerous questions and answers with example code around the topics you ask about.

IWorkItemServer workItemService = getService(IWorkItemServer.class);

List<IWorkItem> children = new ArrayList<IWorkItem>();

List<IReference> references= saveParameter.getNewReferences().getReferences(WorkItemEndPoints.CHILD_WORK_ITEMS);

for (IReference reference: references){

String comment = reference.getComment();

String workItemID = comment.substring(0, comment.indexOf(":"));

IWorkItem workItem = workItemService.findWorkItemById(Integer.parseInt(workItemID), IWorkItem.FULL_PROFILE, monitor);

if (workItem.getWorkItemType().equals(requiredWorkitemType)){

children.add(workItem);

}

}

Hi Sola,


I have tried your code. i got an error like this
"Exception checking precondition. An unhandled exception occurred during "Get link State 1".
The service 'ncb_3.GetLink@3da83da8' failed to find the required service 'interface com.ibm.team.workitem.service.IWorkItemServer'. Check <prerequisites> in plugin.xml."

Dnyanesh, please follow https://jazz.net/library/article/1000 carefully. You got that exception because you did not include com.ibm.team.workitem.service.IWorkItemServer in the prerequisites. You have to manually add them in the plugin.xml like below:
